Paper Marketing

We will be doing one mail-out coinciding with the opening of registration. This mail out will go to:

Some OSGIS 2005 attendees

Students and folks we know will hear about the conference anyways need to be stripped from the list

Some FOSS4G 2006 attendees

Students and folks we know will hear about the conference anyways need to be stripped from the list

GIS offices and companies in the Pacific Northwest

Manually generated list

Some GeoWorld subscribers (?)

Need to choose which states to send to. Entire list is too big.

Some Geospatial Solutions subscribers (?)

Need to choose which states to send to. Entire list is too big.

Web Marketing

Placing banner ads one some of the high-traffic open source project sites is a huge source of referrals. The conference web site already receives the majority of its referrals from open source web site announcements, with GRASS as the top site so far.

Banner placement should probably proceed in earnest after the opening of registration.
